If you could change your name, what would it be?

[starlight109]

Mine would be Gabriella.

Araminta.

Sally. Just a simple yet beautiful name.

Princess Consuela Banana Hammock.

Not the point of the thread but 'if you could change your name'? In theory, anyone can change their name, although I appreciate there might be the consideration of not wanting to offend the people who bestowed it on you.

I'm reasonably happy with my name.

Rowella, ever since I saw Poldark (in the 70s)

Happy with my name nowadays but as a 7 or 8 year old I wanted to be Dutch, and called Cornelia. God knows why 😂

Kim or Nancy.

I like my name, but I would have made a very good Louise.

Mimi

Livia

I already changed my name ;) cut ties with abusive family and chose my own name, sur and middle names included. So liberating!!
If I had to choose another it’d be Magdalena. OTT pretty.

When I was a child, I wanted to be called Lucinda. I’m not sure I could be bothered to change it now though… although I would like the surname Plantagenet.

Grace or Samantha I love the name Harriett to

Frankie

Beattie or Cleopatra

Elena

Melody or Celine... maybe

Bob

Emma

Emma for me too. I use it when I book taxi's as no-one mishears it, like my actual name.

Joanna pronounced Joaaaahna hahah

Anoushka

Susan/Susannah or Angela.
Not the unusual name I was landed with.

Marianne Dangerfield

My real life name is the plainest three letter name imaginable.
Throughout my early childhood I wanted to be a Jane (named my favourite doll that) but in my teens I would have loved to be an Alexandria. Never told anyone this.

My parents divorced when i was 11, my mother remarried and had a daughter. Guess what her name is?!
